Tlic Atlanta Constitution.
Under Its new management, the Atlanta

the leading jourral of the South. Its .en

ment, In sending correspondents to differ
ent portions of the country, and its series
of special telegrams from Washington while
the elec'.oral commission was engaged in
consummating the fraud that placed Radi,
o.lism once more in power in our national
councils are evidences conspicuous enough
to prove that no expense will be spared to
make the Constitution not only a leader in
the discussion of matters of public concern,
but a leader in the dissemination of the la
test and most reliable news. There is no
better time than now to subscribe for
A Fresh and Vigorous Newspaper,

of one of the most difficult and dangerous
problems of modern federal politics, the
discussions springing therefrom and the re

their absorbing interest. In addition to
this, the people of Georgia are now called
upon to settle
The Convention Question.
and in the discussion of this important sub
ject (in which the Constitution will take a
leading part) every Georgian is interested.
If a convention is called its proceedings
will find their earliest and fullest embodi
